[Mingw-users] [ANNOUNCE] xpm2wico v 0.2

Hi,
I have released a new version of my icon converter.
Major changes are:
- (cross-)compilation for cygwin and mingw32;
- deduction of output filename;
- added support for truecolor icons;
- some fixes I don't remember of but that are important;
General features:
- support for icons with any bpp (minimum output will be 8bpp though);
- support for transparency;
- is coded in C;
- is bug-free;
- is distributed under the GNU GPL. And as such permits cross-platform
application writers to not depend on evil proprietary programs.

A similar project, with support for bitmap icons, is available at
http://www.ping.de/sites/aibon/software/xpm2ico.pl.gz
Please don't confuse the names.
If you need a Windows binary, please let me know, but consider switching to
a free operating system (such as GNU/Linux) instead.
